  2. countable, dated A person from the former Kingdom of Hungary, during the Austro-Hungarian Empire, regardless of that person's ethnicity.
  3. uncountable The main language of Hungary. I remember a conversation I had once with a friend who insisted that “nouns are declined but verbs are conjugated”; except in Hungarian you both decline and conjugate nouns, sometimes together.
  4. informal, uncountable Hungarian notation. The qualifier is the descriptive part of the name that would probably make up the entire name if you weren't using Hungarian.
